In addition to the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge, I decided to try the NEWTS reading challenge inspired by Harry Potter. The challenge was created by this wonderful youtuber:  Book Roast NEWTS . This was supposed to be completed in August, but I decided to just try and finish it even if it takes me longer.  For NEWTS I decided on the Magizoologist path. The Magizoologist path requires an O in Care of Magical Creatures, E in Charms, and E in Herbology. You must complete all prior letters to achieve the required letter as well (though I'm going to be going a little out of order). Here is the description of the requirements for Magizoology: Care of Magical Creatures A. Follow the Spiders! Why couldn't it be follow the butterflies! Book title that starts with a letter A, for Aragog! E. Book under 300 pages O. Grab onto Fawke's Tail! Read a book with a bird on the cover. Charms A. Read a book that you think has a gorgeous cover E. Read a comic/graphic novel/ma...

Welcome new readers and welcome back continuing readers! As some of you know, this year, I've been participating in the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge; you can find out more info in my Overview post or on the Pop Sugar Website.

And trying not to annoy my fiance (still so strange to call him that) too much with beginning to wedding plan. Also, in addition to the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge, I decided to try the NEWTS reading challenge inspired by Harry Potter, and I'm working on getting a post together about that.  The challenge was created by this wonderful youtuber: Book Roast NEWTS . I'll have more on what I decided to do for NEWTS (plus a review of the 45th book I read this year next week.) Here is my book review for my 44th book of 2019: Book 44:  Dragonology Chronicles: The Dragon's Eye  by Dugald A. Steer ...

I recently decided to follow the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge for 2019 (you can see the prompt list in my 2019 Reading Challenge Overview post or on the popsugar.com website), and wanted to give some thoughts on the books that I'm reading for it this year. Some of these books will be outside of my comfort zone, and some will be books I would've read with or without the challenge. So without further ado, here are my thoughts on the 2nd book that I've read this year. Book 2: Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald The Original Screenplay  by JK Rowling I gave this book 3/5 stars on Goodreads. The prompt I chose for this was "A book that makes you feel nostalgic." I grew up on the Harry Potter books and movies, and I love that there's new books and movies still coming out from the Harry Potter universe. Granted, I don't get dressed up as Luna anymore to go to the midnight releases, but it does make me remember the days that I did. I...
